Oh, Crop!

 Hey everyone, happiest of Tuesday's to you.   Today I am back with Day 4 of the March 2021 New Release Showcase from La-La Land Crafts.   Today I am showcasing the newest clear stamp set Oh, Crop! As well as the Happy Easter Die and the Build-A-Bunny-Die as well as the Double Stitched Eggs Die.  



The minute I saw the Double Stitched Eggs Die set and the Build-A-Bunny Die I knew that I needed to have a Bunny behind sticking out of tree- as if the bunny is going down into the tree and I absolutely love how it turned out.    

I used the Happy Easter Die with the Hello Baby Paper Pack as well as white cardstock with the Happy Easter Die.    I assembled my bunny behind, and colored with Spectrum Noir- the pads on the feet.   I lightly inked with Pumice Stone Distress Oxide.



Next I used the Wood Planks Clear Stamp Set to create my tree look- with Icing on the Cake Ink - from Catherine Pooler.    I used the Double Stitched Circles Die to create my hole in the tree and did my sentiment bar with the Double Stitched Rectangles Die- just got creative to make a bit smaller cutting over and over and layering.


I stamped my Bunny from the Oh, Crop! Clear Stamp Set and colored with Spectrum Noir.    I then added him to the bottom of the card.   Lastly I added a few dew drops to the card. 


Bunny: BG1, BG3, BG5, BG7, BG9, PP1, PP3, White Gel Pen

Poultry in Motion - Interactive card with La-La Land Crafts

Happy Monday!   Today I am back with a fun interactive card featuring Poultry in Motion and Best of Cluck from La-La Land Crafts.

I created a slider card, which allows the cute little chicks to move along the grass.   


   

I thought it would be cute to have the Rooster in front of the gate.... the chicks are cute- but maybe a bit mischievous or playful so maybe he is taking a break from the kids.

I used the Grass Border Die as well as the Grass Patches Die to create the scene with the grass- and hide my slider system.

Spectrum Noir:
Chicks: CT1, CT2, CT3, CT4, OR1, OR3
Bows: BP1, BP3, BP5
Rooster: DR1, DR3, DR5, IG1, Colorless Blender, OR1, OR3
Grass: JG1, JG3, JG5, JG7
White Gel Pen
Clouds: Cumberland Ink- Catherine Pooler



I used the Scalloped Rectangles Die-overlapping a bit to create a slimline- with the Spring Has Sprung Paper Pack, and used the Summer is Here Layering Stencil to create the clouds in the sky- using Catherine Pooler Cumberbund Ink.



I added some flowers from the Flower Bunch Die and behind Mr. Rooster, added two Garden Gates.   



And for the card in action:

February 2021 Club La-La Land Crafts showcase

 Hi everyone!   Today I am back sharing a few more cards featuring the February 2021 Club La-La Land Crafts kit.   I just love everything about this kit.   


First up, I have Retro Marci sharing her get well wishes.    I stamped Marci on Neenah Classic Crest Cardstock and cut with my Scan N Cut.   



I colored with Spectrum Noir TriBlends and Illustrators:

Spectrum Noir Triblends:
Skin: Fair Skin Blend
Dress: True Blue Blend
Belt and socks: Ice Grey Blend
Shoes: Ice Grey Blend, True Blue Blend

Illustrators:
Hair: RB1, RB2, RB3, RB4, TN9
Lips: AP2, AP4
White Gel Pen

I wanted to give Marci more of a preppy look, which is why I colored both the top and skirt the same color.   

I added the Jukebox Die- Cut with Tonic Mirror Card- in Black Velvet, and layered blue and pink cardstock behind to match the pattern paper.

I used the Celebrate Paper Pack (it's from the February 2021 release- and I have to admit one of my all time favorite packs).

I used the Double Stitched Squares Die as well as the Stitched Pennants Die- layering behind Marci.

I wanted Marci and the Jukebox to take center stage so I kept my layers simple for this card.

A few enamel dots- add the finishing touches.   

Next up, I have the Good Times Rubber Stamp- and I just think these poodles are the cutest ever.



I colored the poodles with Spectrum Noir Triblends:

Bowtie: True Blue Blend
Poodles: Ice Grey Blend
Hairbow: Bright Pink Blend, Bright Pink Shades
Cherry: Dark Red Blend


I used the Double Stitched Squares Die to create a dance floor for the poodles to have a bit of fun dancing on.

I used the Jukebox Die- cutting just the top off- reminding me of the jukeboxes you would see tableside at a diner like Gunther Toody's (not sure if they are located everywhere- but we have them here in Colorado).

I die cut the milkshake and added behind the poodles- I am thinking maybe they had a few milkshakes before dancing.


Again- I used the pattern paper from the February 2021 Release- Celebrate- have I told you it's my favorite so far?  Ha ha.

I added a few enamel dots to the card, adding the finishing touches.

Happy Monday!  This week the Design Team, is all about Clear Stamps and La-La Land Crafts has so many fun sets.

I stamped the adorable hamsters on Neenah Classic Crest card and colored with Spectrum Noir Triblends:

Fair Skin Blend

Muted Brown Blend

Blue Turquouise Blend

Blue Turquoise Shades

Ice Grey Blend

White Gel Pen 

I used the Scalloped Rectangles Die set to do a slimline card- doubling 2 of the dies- with a bit of overlap.

I used the new Celebrate Paper pack as my pattern paper and color scheme.

I added the Coffee Words Die, as well as the Coffee Cup Die and the Coffee Mugs Die and love how they add to the card.  

The Stitched Nested Circles Dies paired perfect with the Hamsters.

I used the arrow and the flags from the Stitched Elements Die.
